The Law of Attraction

At Sy Law Firm

Luo could still not believe how her husband had managed to trick her. But then again, she squealed every now and then because of that fact. It only meant that Noah wanted to marry her as well. And it was not because he felt obligated.

She was engrossed in her own world, happily thinking about her love life and giggling when her secretary entered the office.

"Ma'am… The Chairman's office called to inform us that CEO Sy would report to work starting tomorrow." her secretary reported and Luo nodded then dismissed her.

She could finally talk to Liam in person to inform him about her marriage and her intention of leaving the firm. She heaved a long, frustrated sigh. She loved working at the Sy Law firm but she was married to Noah and as his wife she wanted to be a dutiful and supportive one.. So after a lot of careful thinking, she decided that she would resign from Sy law firm.

She knew Liam was a broad-minded person and would understand her dilemma, but still she also felt sad about leaving Sy law firm because she loved her job.

"Who would have ever thought that I will end up loving the CEO of a rival law firm?" Luo murmured.

Her mobile phone rang, and a very bright smile crossed her face seeing the call was from her husband. Her face reddened as a flashback of their almost nonstop love making crossed her mind. She was honestly so sore all over that last night her considerate husband let her body rest from his sweet assaults for a while.

"How come my heart still flutters like this?" she complained, feeling the loud drumming of her heart from her chest. She quickly grabbed her phone and answered the call.

"Let's have dinner outside later… I will make it up to you since I postponed our trip to your beach resort." Noah said.

"That's okay." Luo answered. Something urgent came up with one of Noah's business subsidiaries and he had to cancel their weekend tour. She noticed that her husband was actually a busy business man and even on weekends he often was out to attend to his work.

"Alright, I will pick you up around 5 pm." Noah muttered.

"Sure. I'll be ready by then. I miss you…" Luo said and quickly ended the call.

"Ehhhhh!" she squealed and giggled with a deep blush on her face and even slumped her face on her desk as if afraid that someone could see the reddening of her cheeks. It was the first time she said those words and she felt shy.

"Next time… It will be I like you… Then I'll slowly move on to I love you!" she planned while sitting alone, followed by another round of squealing and giggling.

If her mother saw her acting that way she would definitely get scolded and it would be worse if she found out that she was actually using subtle ways to woo her husband so he would fall in love with her.

"I want him to fall so deeply in love with me that he will go crazy at the thought of losing me…" Luo whispered.

Noah on the other hand, unconsciously smiled as he entered the conference room. For some reason he felt weird, but in a very good way, with Luo's unexpected words and actions, like when she suddenly said she missed him and ended the call in a haste.

The meeting commenced, but his mind was wandering about somewhere else. He wondered how he had come at the point where his hunger for a woman could not be quenched. He was rubbing his chin as he tried to focus and listen to the team's presentation. But, he kept looking at his wristwatch, wanting time to move faster so he could pick her up already and be with her.

"Damn…" Noah unconsciously uttered.

"Let's wrap and continue tomorrow," he suddenly instructed before standing from his seat.

Back at Luo's office.

"Here ma'am," Luo offered her box of tissues to her client, who was crying really hard.

"I gave him everything, but what did he do? He enjoyed himself with another woman! I want that bastard to get punished and I want to take away all his assets from him!" her client grunted. It was unlikely for her to accept this particular type of case, but the woman was a friend of her mother's cousin and she was recommended by her mother.

That woman was obviously hurt, so Luo listened to all her pain.

"We are really doing good in those first seven years of our marriage. We were so much in love, I don't even know what happened and where it all went wrong… Why would he choose his mistress over his family? I thought he was busy with the business but turned out he was busy with his mistress!" the woman grunted.

Luo gulped and decided not to accept any more marriage cases like this in the future or else she would get discouraged hearing those marriages failing or worse the other party filing a case like this one. She only hoped that she and Noah would never come into a scenario like this.

She heaved a sigh of relief when her conversation with the said client was finally over.

She walked her client out of her office and was about to go back in her room when her mobile phone vibrated.

It was once again his husband. Luo quickly answered it.

"I'm outside your building…" Noah informed saying he was in the bas.e.m.e.nt parking waiting for her.

Luo looked at her wristwatch and said, "But it's too early. I have another appointment with a client in fifteen minutes."

"Didn't you say you miss me?" Noah teased with a grin.

"I did?" Luo asked in a naive tone as if she could not remember she said that although she too had that mischievous grin plastered all over her face as she walked out and signaled her secretary that she would be back.

"I'm not deaf baby… Come down and see me for twenty minutes while you wait for your client to arrive," Noah instructed.

Then he added, "Or do you want me to leave now?"

"No! I'm on my way now to the bas.e.m.e.nt parking, b.a.b.y…." Luo quickly said, giving heavy diction on the word 'baby'.
